  • What is the ROUGH ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM responsible for in the endomembrane system

    • consist of ribosomes

    • ribosomes gives the rough ER its rough appearance

    • ribosomes are responsible for producing proteins which are packed into transport vesicles and carried to the golgi body

  • Why is the smooth ER called a smooth ER

    • Responsible for detoxification

    • production of lipids which are also packaged into transport vesicles and sent to the golgi body

  • What does the Golgi apparatus?

    • Package and distribrute cell products that are either destined for a specific location within the cell such as plaasma membrane

  • What is a membrane system?

    • The membrane system is the collection of membrane based organelles that work together to :

    • create

    • modify

    • export cell products such as lipids if consisting of nuclear envelope,smooth apparatus,and rough ER
